I chose to look at the complexification series by Jared Tarbell, a programmer/artist who also co founded the website Etsy. He creates algorithms that produce pieces with random elements, like the one above. He leaves his code open to modification by interested parties as a way to keep it in execution by distributing the source code, which I think is cool and an interesting way to collaborate. Although I do not know much about the algorithm used to make this specific piece, I like the way that the slight variation and randomness in the threads that make up this piece combine to give the digital work an organic feeling.
